Food Pantry

Food insecurity is a worldwide issue and the Titusville area is no exception. Due to ever-increasing costs of groceries, we see increasing numbers of individuals and families in need at our food pantry.

We currently feed approximately 240 families each month through our food pantry. In addition, we assist individuals with applying for SNAP benefits if they are currently not receiving them. If you are experiencing food insecurity, please stop by our location or contact us for assistance.

Eligibility Guidelines:

Individuals and families must use the food pantry in their designated zip code area
Individuals and families may visit the food pantry one time per month
Eligibility is based on income and household size, as set by the Department of Agriculture. Current guidelines can be checked in this document.
Emergency food boxes are distributed as needed, up to a maximum of two per year

Donations of unexpired non-perishable food items, baby food, pet food, nutritional supplements, and fresh produce are accepted. Food donations can be dropped off during regular business hours. If you would like to make a monetary donation to the food panty, you can find more information on our Support Us page. If you have questions, please contact us for more information.

Food Drives

Every year in November, Associated Charities is the beneficiary of the Erie News Now Food Drive in Titusville, collecting holiday food and donations for those in need.

Local businesses generously support the Associated Charities through food drives and collections. In 2023, local USPS carriers collected more than 1,400 pounds of food for the annual Stamp Out Hunger food drive. Countless other businesses and organizations regularly donate food to the pantry and support our efforts. If your organization or business would like to conduct a food drive, please contact us to make arrangements.
